Post by: Robmeister on January 14, 2007, 02:33:51 PM: Now I'll see how quickly I can mitigate the pale shadow.....first using Oil of Olay

.....and then more drastic--albeit safe and reasonable--measures if need be.

Post by: Robmeister on January 15, 2007, 03:49:22 PM: This mile-high sun here in Denver is pretty effective. It was a crystal-clear day today so I got about 30 minutes worth of exposure.

The Fusion works great. Had velcro head today. Took it back down to slick a little bit ago.

HAHA I call it the same thing because it sticks to my pillowcase or my shirt when I put it on.

Congrats on your shave!!!!!!

Post by: MagmaBabe on January 24, 2007, 07:12:42 AM: I agree with the Professor, you're much better looking bald! ;)
Title: Re: The Process
Post by: Professor Melon on January 24, 2007, 08:05:11 AM: Lookin' good, Robmeister! Welcome to the world of sly. The adjustment in self-image may take a while, but it's worth it. My "haired" image fades every day, especially just after shaving, before the velcro starts back up. Godspeed, Professor Melon :D :D :D

Thanks, Professor!

I actually am relishing the adjustment...particularly in the area of headwear. Pre-bald I simply had an array of baseball caps to cover bed-head....or a bad hair day.

Then once that hat was on...it never came off for the day (even at home)--unless I showered--as it would expose a mass of matted and/or sweaty disheveled hair (i.e. "hat-head")

Now...the cap is a fashion accessory--a quality Polo news boy style--and can be put on or taken off in any company at any time with perfect confidence of a good look either way!!

Very liberating!

Post by: schro on January 26, 2007, 02:01:14 PM: I am thankful that my typical attire is a button down, hawaiian shirt because if I had to pull a shirt over my head everyday and endure the velcro effect, it would definitely bite. Guess I was destined to be sly, given I have a large supply of hawaiian style shirts in the closet.

Aloha.............beer time,
Schro

ps - Robmeister....a beret? Does that mean you're a surrendering type (French)?
